CAMPBELL, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Mimosa
Networks, a pioneer in gigabit wireless technology, today announced
the launch of the first wave of its groundbreaking wireless Internet
solutions – the B5 Backhaul radio with coordinated Massive MIMO
technology, and Mimosa Cloud Services featuring advanced network-wide
planning and analytics. The pairing of the B5 radio with Mimosa Cloud
Services is a breakthrough in connectivity, allowing ISPs (Internet
Service Providers) to seamlessly build and manage high-capacity scalable
networks that pick up where fiber leaves off.

With the launch of these two solutions, Mimosa embarks on its
comprehensive “cloud-to-client” strategy – bringing disruptive
technology advancements that deliver the speed and reliability demanded
by today’s end users. “Wireless networks have been historically limited
in the ability to deploy fiber speeds economically and on a global
scale,” says Brian Hinman, CEO of Mimosa. “Mimosa’s mission is to create
an incredibly broad suite of products at each layer of the Internet
access network that will make wireless a scalable Internet solution for
all types of communities worldwide.”

A groundbreaking advance in wireless Internet capacity, Mimosa unveils
its B5 Backhaul radio as the first 4 MIMO stream, colocatable radio with
advanced spectrum re-use capabilities. The B5 introduces the innovation
of “Spectrum Multiplication,” changing the way the industry will view
spectrum efficiency.

Jaime Fink, Mimosa’s Chief Product Officer, stated, “The B5 radio is the
first product in the world to offer Spectrum Multiplication, leveraging
coordinated Massive MIMO technology, which allows colocated radios to
deliver an astonishing 16 MIMO streams, and 4 Gbps of throughput, all
while sharing the same channel. The ability to deliver this type of
technology at such an accessible price point will revolutionize the
wireless service provider industry.”

The Mimosa B5 introduces an entirely new set of features never before
seen in the outdoor wireless market:

Advanced Colocation – the B5 radio makes the most of available
spectrum. Using both GPS and GLONASS to maximize satellite sync
through precision timing as well as sophisticated RF isolation
techniques, the B5 radio offers maximum spectrum re-use for colocated
devices.

Auto Everything – the first radio to offer real-time spectrum
analysis without service interruption. The B5 radio automatically
optimizes bandwidth, frequency and power use based on historical and
real-time data – allowing the radio to immediately adapt to any
environmental change.

Complementing the innovative hardware, Mimosa Cloud Services
revolutionizes the process of network planning and management with an
intelligent, cloud-based planning and analytics tool set for wireless
service providers. Enhanced with Google Maps™ mapping service, Mimosa’s
network design features allow operators to visually plan and design
links while viewing their entire network in one location. Additional
topology and obstruction information as well as environmental ITU-based
data provide deeper understanding of how a link might operate in
real-life.

Mimosa Cloud Services also uses advanced management and monitoring
techniques to support networks as they grow. Leveraging the B5’s
constant spectrum analysis ability, providers can view real-time and
historical spectrum data for any Mimosa radio on their network. Bulk
collection of network statistics and graphing of device performance
provide operators with the analytics required to improve their networks.
Advanced monitoring and alert systems along with secure connection to
all Mimosa devices ensures that operators are informed and able to
pinpoint problems when customers experience any service interruption.

Mimosa Cloud Services design capabilities are available now. The B5
Backhaul radio is available for order in two versions – an
antenna-integrated 5 GHz backhaul radio (B5); and a connectorized
radio-only version (B5c). The B5 (List Price: $899 for B5, $839 for B5c)
will begin shipping to customers in Fall 2014. To purchase the Mimosa B5
